Reaction Steps

Methyl 8-(4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl)-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-benzoazocine-5-carboxylate (230 mg) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (15 ml) and methanol (15 ml), after which an aqueous 1N sodium hydroxide solution (5 ml) was added. The mixture was stirred for 3 hours at 90° C. After adding water at 0° C., the reaction mixture was neutralized with 1N hydrochloric acid, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and dried with magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to give methyl 8-(4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl)-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-benzoazocine-5-carboxylic acid (220 mg) as a yellow amorphous material.
